Meghan Markle shrugs off family drama in $1,480 dress

The duchess kept a close grip on her stomach as she made a solo royal appearance to visit the Royal Variety Charity residential nursing and care home in the London suburb of Twickenham on Tuesday. The residents at the home have a special connection to the former Suits actress — like her, they all once worked in the entertainment industry.

But there was no hint of family turmoil as the duchess braved the cold in a stunning winter floral dress from Brock Collection. Priced at $1,480, the dove gray Odilia midi dress — which features cap sleeves and a bump-hugging pencil skirt — was paired with Soia & Kyo’s gray wool Adelaida coat ($550), a pink clutch, and strappy taupe suede heels from Aquazzura.

While the new royal has been hounded by haters of late, her latest appearance — and dress — is getting lots of love.
